The Oscars took place in Los Angeles on Sunday night, with a bevy of Hollywood's top talent being added to the list of Academy Award Winners for 2013.
The top six categories went as such: Best Picture was awarded to "Argo", Best Actor went to Daniel Day-Lewis, Jennifer Lawrence won Best Actress, Ang Lee earned Best Directing and Christoph Waltz and Anne Hathaway won the Best Supporting Categories for Actor and Actress, respectively.
Winners are selected by the voting body of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, comprised of industry insiders. That's a marked difference from the Golden Globes, which are voted on by the Hollywood Foreign Press, or the guilds' awards (Screen Actors Guild, Writers Guild, Directors Guild), which are awarded by members of a particular profession.
This year's Oscars were hosted by Seth MacFarlane and took place at Hollywood's Dolby Theatre. A number of tributes and performances punctuated the telecast, including a tribute to James Bond and a "Chicago" reunion, as well as a "Les Miserables" bit piece. Barbra Streisand also graced the Oscar stage, as did Ted, the fictional teddy bear MacFarlane made famous in a movie by the same name.
In pre-show interviews, MacFarlane admitted to being nervous about the gig, telling the Associated Press that it was "the hardest job in the world," despite being a "one-off."
